fmolzer here, posting under ammdrews signature... We are just rolling out of Ft Myers for a looong trip back to The cold North... Minnesota. To put things stright, Andrew was doing the reporting, I feed him the info from the track and the monitor in the pits. The race was very entertaining to watch, even with the Mugens dominating. Swauger was definately dominating the race, Fukade and him were fighting for position for a while, once Swauger tapped Fukada right in front of the pit lane entrance and sent him to the boards, then he showed some incredible sportsmanship and pulled over to let Fukada claim the lead... He got it back on the next lap, but nevertheless it was a very classy move. For horsepower, Swauger was running a JP, and hed definately had a huge edge over every other car in the race. Rumors were flying in the pits that the Serpent team did not get their shipment of team engines for this show and judging by the difference in HP, it may have been true. Neither Salven or Burch seemed to have the power you normally expect to see.
